Yeah, this futon sucks. I'm 5'2", and I could maybe sleep on it in fetal position. And there's no way to re-position the back or arms. Once you put the back up so you can sit on it, it loses the capability to lay flat. Also, the upholstery wrinkles when it's folded upwards. That's why the one in the video is black; that way, you can't see the wrinkles.
